I made a post a few weeks ago about my life and how it changed. It was about our struggle to conceive and all the pitfalls and low places that one goes through after losing a baby. We lost our son at 18 weeks. It was 5 years ago on the 5th. This pregnancy has been emotional to say the least. But, through a lot of prayer and a lot of faith we made it past that HUGE number we had inadvertently put in our path. We made it to 19 weeks this week. This weekend we will be 20 weeks, which is technically half way. That is a 142 days. Sounds like a lot, but the first 4 months went by like a blur. Making a nursery, painting it, car seats, diapers, gadgets, nursing, formula are the only things flying through my head right now. Trying not to put to much pressure on myself. Take my time. Make the right decisions and try not to lose it when I do!
Hearing the heartbeat for the first time. Watching that little guy flip and roll around inside his momma is such a surreal moment. Being 50 and a Dad will be an adventure! I have never been more in love with the woman I am married too than right now. She is going to be a wonderful mother. I know this because I have become a better man because of her.
These posts will be short and sweet. (shameless business plug) My business is till running. That’s the joy of having it online. I get to buy all our newborns stuff through my own site and get paid while doing it!
